The special Turkish goat cheese at Seraser fine Dining Restaurant/ Tuvana Hotel

Oct. 19, 2009 - PRLog -- Goat cheese or chevre (French for goat) is a cheese made from goat milk. The higher proportion for medium chain fatty acids in goat milk; like caproic, caprylic and capric acid differentiate it from cow milk, and contribute to the characteristic flavor of goat cheese.

This type of cheese is one of the most significant secret of the gourmet meals, with its pristine color and distinctive taste.

What makes this cheese special is the variety in terms of ingredient, taste and shape. Goat cheese can range in pungent and strong, to delicate and mild. They come in many shapes; like disc, wheel, and log like buche and puck like crottin. They delight with many textures from creamy to crumbly. They are also served fresh, aged or marinated in olive oil or red wine. They may also get coated in herbs, black pepper and chocolate, with which different flavors can be adopted.

Compared to the cow milk products, goat cheese is lower in fat, calories and cholesterol. It also provides more calcium and fewer carbohydrates. Although it is lower in calories, it has a full, rich and creamy flavor.

Goats were some of the first domesticated animals, thus the art of making goat cheese has a long history. It has begun in east of Mediterranean and spread from Mediterranean, through Europe to America. Eastern Anatolian cities, like Erzurum furthered the tradition by producing an abundance of fabulous goat cheese of its own.

Seraser Fine Dining Restaurant team drives into Erzurum to buy fortified special goat cheese. During 5 day trip in Erzurum, all local, small, regional producers are visited. Tuvana hotel team also attends to production process of goat cheese and gets information about all ingredients, used in their cheeses. After all these visits, the most delicious and special ones are chosen, and the ones, passing the tasting taste are bought to be served to Seraser Fine Dining Restaurant guests, located in Kaleiçi/ Antalya/ Turkey.

As I said at the beginning, goat cheese is one of the most important members of gourmet plates and a secret behind the gourmet dishes, served in Seraser Fine Dining Restaurant/ Tuvana Hotel.
